57 The righteous perish,
    and no one lays it to heart.
Merciful men are taken away,
    and no one considers that the righteous is taken away from the evil.
He enters into peace.
    They rest in their beds,
    each one who walks in his uprightness.

Israel’s Futile Idolatry

57 The righteous perishes,
And no man takes it to heart;
(A)Merciful men are taken away,
(B)While no one considers
That the righteous is taken away from [a]evil.
He shall enter into peace;
They shall rest in (C)their beds,
Each one walking in his uprightness.
